If late Apple co-founder and tech visionary Steve Jobs were still alive, on this occasion he would have had 60 candles to blow out on his birthday cake.

On what would otherwise mark the milestone 60th birthday of the man, the myth, and the legend that is Steve Jobs, Apple CEO Tim Cook turned to Twitter on Tuesday to remember his late colleague and close friend.

"Remembering Steve, who would have turned 60 today," Cook tweeted. "The only way to do great work is to love what you do." Cook also shared a photo of Jobs in the post.

Cook composed and posted the tweet from Berlin, Germany. Although few details are known about Cook's visit, the chief executive of Apple was seen in the editorial office of BILD, a prominent German newspaper, where Cook reportedly meet with the publicationís presiding editors.
